In order to build a green manufacturing model and realize energy conservation and
emission reduction, we establish a distributed two-stage reentrant hybrid flow shop bi-level …

In this study, the flexible task scheduling problem in a cloud computing system is studied
and solved by a hybrid discrete artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, where the considered …

This paper presents a genetic algorithm to solve the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem to
minimize the total tardiness. Practical assumptions as unrelated machines and machine …

Dynamic scheduling is crucial for semiconductor manufacturing as product-mix is increasing
with shortening product life cycle. However, the present problem is challenging owing to …

In this paper, an m-stage hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with limited workforce in
charge of performing setup operations is addressed. Indeed, such workforce represents a …

The distributed reentrant permutation flow shop (DRPFS) is a combination of the reentrant
flow shop problem and distributed scheduling. The DRPFS is a NP-hard problem that …

During recent years, distributed manufacturing optimization problems have been researched
